1
وَٱلضُّحَىٰ
CONSIDER the bright morning hours,
2
وَٱلَّيْلِإِذَاسَجَىٰ
and the night when it grows still and dark.
3
مَاوَدَّعَكَرَبُّكَوَمَاقَلَىٰ
Thy Sustainer has not forsaken thee, nor does He scorn thee:
4
وَلَلْـَٔاخِرَةُخَيْرٌۭلَّكَمِنَٱلْأُولَىٰ
for, indeed, the life to come will be better for thee than this earlier part [of thy life]!
5
وَلَسَوْفَيُعْطِيكَرَبُّكَفَتَرْضَىٰٓ
And, indeed, in time will thy Sustainer grant thee [what thy heart desires], and thou shalt be well-pleased.
6
أَلَمْيَجِدْكَيَتِيمًۭافَـَٔاوَىٰ
Has He not found thee an orphan, and given thee shelter?
7
وَوَجَدَكَضَآلًّۭافَهَدَىٰ
And found thee lost on thy way, and guided thee?
8
وَوَجَدَكَعَآئِلًۭافَأَغْنَىٰ
And found thee in want, and given thee sufficiency?
9
فَأَمَّاٱلْيَتِيمَفَلَاتَقْهَرْ
Therefore, the orphan shalt thou never wrong,
10
وَأَمَّاٱلسَّآئِلَفَلَاتَنْهَرْ
and him that seeks [thy] help shalt thou never chide,
11
وَأَمَّابِنِعْمَةِرَبِّكَفَحَدِّثْ
and of thy Sustainer's blessings shalt thou [ever] speak.
